During the opening match of "Ligue 1" that took place on Friday evening, Lyon's "Olympique" had a hard time at home but managed to beat "Ajaccio" 2-1.

Alexandre Lacacette converted a penalty from 11 meters and doubled his team's lead. However, just 9 minutes later, "Ajaccio" also scored from a penalty kick. Furthermore, due to a very rough foul in the box, Lyon's goalkeeper Anthony Lopes was sent off. Thomas Mangani converted the set piece and the score became 2-1. It seemed like the visitors would go into the second half with a positive note, but in the 45+3 minute, Romain Hamouma from the visitors' team also received a red card, and both teams continued the match on the field with 10 players each. In the second half, neither team managed to score and Lyon's players started the season with hard-fought three points.
